Falling into Silence: Mind-Reading CEO, Please Advise

She can hear the hottest heartbeat beneath his icy exterior. Lin Wei is a hardworking intern hoping to land a permanent position at Lingrui, a top tech conglomerate. Her biggest problems in life are her demanding boss and the pressure of her KPIs. That is, until an accident leaves her having broken a valuable metal sculpture belonging to CEO Ling Yao, and somehow opens a “headphone jack” into his heart. Ling Yao, the industry-famous “AI CEO,” is cold, sharp-tongued, and obsessed with efficiency. One look from him can send an entire conference room into a deep freeze. Everyone thinks he has no feelings. Only Lin Wei knows how absurd the truth really is... When he tells her that her proposal is utterly worthless, his inner monologue is: [The idea is actually good, but the details are too immature. If I praise her outright, she'll get arrogant. I need to rein her in.] When she gets a stomachache from working overtime on an empty stomach, he “just happens” to order late-night snacks for the whole department. His inner monologue is: [Mango double-skin milk pudding. She probably likes sweet things, right? ...Tsk, what a hassle.] When a spoiled client harasses her, he steps in, gets her out of the situation, and coldly tells the client to “get lost.” His inner monologue is: [Her hands are shaking. Is she scared? ...Was I too harsh just now?] On the outside: an icy, sharp-tongued perfectionist. On the inside: awkwardly earnest, his thoughts scrolling by at breakneck speed. Forced to wear these one-of-a-kind “headphones,” Lin Wei lives every day in a surreal world of extreme contrasts. She has to hold on to her job and carefully hide this earth-shattering secret. Worse still, she finds herself starting to think that this CEO, so different on the inside from the outside... is kind of adorable? And Ling Yao's biggest secret goes far beyond that.
